Hello!

My family are moving to Queensland next year, and my eldest daughter will be starting school 2015. We are moving to the Raceview/Ipswich area, and have heard wonderful things about Raceview State School (Primary school). Are there any mummies out there who are in this school or know of how the local schools are in the area? Thankyou so very much.

  • You need to go on school tours you will get the gut instinct on what school is right for you and your child.


  • there are some good comments here


  • Depending on when you move there, you should still have time to look around


  • Hope you decided on a school.


  • how did you go in the end?


  • Different Facebook groups specific to the area might help you get in touch with people who have children in these schools


  • Hope you manage to get the info you are after.


  • I hope you find a good place for your child


  • Ipswich Central maybe, Ippy is a lovely family orientated suburb.


  • Good luck with your search.


  • I have heard good things about race view and Ipswich central school. My girl went to Bethany but they do say the school is as good as the principle and I can tell you Michael josey is the principle of central and he is worth is weight in gold


  • I’d suggest using the internet to research the schools in the area, and once you move have a look at each of the schools you’re interested in. Once you get to know people in the area you can ask their opinions on schools. You still have a fair bit of time until she starts so lots of time to decide :)


  • Hope you find a school suitable to your needs best of luck


  • I hope queenslanders can help u here


  • go by other parents opinions


  • Compare them to other schools by looking at acara


  • A girlfriend of mine recently moved to Perth and has joined a few Facebook groups in her area in order to meet other parents and gauge their opinions about schools / facilities in the area.
    Perhaps you could also contact the local schools and ask them to send you out an information pack…


  • we are new to Ipswich and my daughter starts school then too. I have already heard great things about Raceview s.s.!


  • My son will be going to churchill state next year


  • It’s a fantastic school with an excellent whole school approach to behaviour management. Wonderful teachers and staff and they are also a leading school in the Ipswich area for literacy and numeracy – improving every year with their national tests and achieving beyond state standards in some areas. I’d definitely recommend it. :)
